My application status says "Application received - Christmas casual York MC nights - and I can even click on it and view all my details. I have, however, not received anything in the way of email, phone call, or text to invite me to
an interview or registration event for York Mail center. Have I missed the boat? :sad:

You won't have missed the boat..

From the start of the application to the point where you receive your ID cards and contract (for me and everyone I know) takes roughly 5 weeks, angard aren't the quickest..

I'm the same as you. Should contact them via e-mail or by phone to find out. As I only recently e-mailed them to ask about it.

As my status on Friday was still at, "Interview booked" the day after my registration event/interview. Checked it over the weekend and it was, "processing security checks DS". Now it's at, "Awaiting further information" when I checked it earlier today.

Point of note,they take ages to update their system.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

So I'm guessing I will hear from them within the next few days on to what information they need then?

Mine has been saying Security Checks Passed since the 3rd October.

Not received a confirmation or out. I was just given a letter at the registration event with the date and shift. So if nothing changes in the status I'll just turn up with the letter.

"Hired and start date agreed" here too, although I'd feel a bit more reassured if they'd actually confirm the start date on the website. I'm not overly thrilled that my only notification so far has been a single phone call.
